Bettini listed on Ebay

Post by fmblizz »

Just saw a Graphophone with a Bettini system on Ebay. Didn't last long as the listing seemed to be pulled almost immediately.

The Ebay page now states that the item was removed??? Playing games I would guess.

Item number was 320707953536..

or search under Graphophone.

When a listing is removed completely, as opposed to ended early by a seller, it usually means it was fraudulent. There was a Type A Graphophone with Bettini rig on eBay a few months back, most likely a scammer saved the pictures and text and uploaded them to try to hook some poor victim. One of my eBay auctions was hijacked like that several months after it had disappeared from eBay's accessible database. It took several reports from several people before eBay finally took it down.
